Tree Trunk Urns

The tree trunk – the nature urn made from wood

Natural urns

If a loved one suddenly passes away, it raises the question of what kind of burial is suitable. Nowadays, more and more people decide to cremate the body. Besides financial reasons, the decision is based upon creative options for the funeral and the urn. There is a wide range of urns today, and it can be very challenging to find the right one. Besides ceramic urns, classic wooden urns, artist urns, and metal urns, there is a large selection of organic urns. There are many reasons to opt for a biodegradable urn.

The most original and natural form of the organic urn is the tree trunk urn. It is a wooden urn made from a piece of tree trunk wood. Its naturally classic yet elegant form reflects the ecological cycle. We are born of nature, return to nature, and in this way allow new life to thrive.

An urn from a tree trunk

The concept

The concept of a tree trunk urn is simple. We intended to create an appealing but also very natural urn. Like with many other organic urns, wood provides the best base for biological degradation. But for this kind of wooden urn, the original material is used in its most natural form. We purposely renounce the use of any glues, oils, or lacquers.

The urns are made from selected tree trunks of, for example, earl, birch, poplar, and willow wood. These are stored for at least two years. A carpenter carves the tree trunk and makes room for the ash container or small cotton bag filled with the ashes. Unlike regular carpentry works, the bark remains undamaged during the process and thus the natural look remains unchanged. Because of this, you get a wonderfully personal urn.

More than a wooden urn

Close to nature

Every piece of tree trunk has its own special shape and integrity, and those stand for the relationship with nature and show the beauty of a natural tree. The bark of the tree is both decoration and protection of the deceased’s ashes. Each person is unique, and so are our tree trunk urns. Each urn is as individual and exceptional as the tree it is made from, which means that no urn is like the other. Whether it is the unique grain of birch or the moss-covered bark of an earl.
